Remarks: While only one time range is given above, in actuality we suggest two time ranges: MJD 58858.083 - 58858.250 and MJD 58859.083 - 58859.250. These time ranges coincide with our groud-based observations.
ToO: Y
Coordinate Observation: Y
Observatory: WILLIAM HERSCHEL TELESCOPE
Description: This NICER observation will be in coordination with IR polarimetry with LIRIS+WHT (La Palma) and optical imaging with IAC80 (Tenerife). Correlated optical/IR/X-ray observation have previously proven highly useful in the analysis of X-ray Binary sources. The addition on IR polarimetry is a FIRST and will allow us to dissentagle the various emission components.
Uninterrupted: Y
Justification: Since we are aiming for ground based observations simulteous each NICER window is only 2.5ks, we hope that the two NICER observations will be uninterrupted in order to maximise coverage.
Estimated Count Rate (cts s-1): 6.000
